Read from February 17 to 19, 2012

Based on ARC.

This book brings the walking dead to a whole new level.

Eleanor Fitt is a witty, likeable character whose life has taken a chaotic turn. Her brother is missing. Her family has fallen on hard times, and to make matters worse, her overbearing mother is determined to see her married. Set in high society, the world building takes off with a mix of corsets and parasols. There is a necromancer on the loose who has taken control. The dead are rising.

Eleanor takes a risk and seeks out the Spirit-Hunters, where she meets the head inventor Daniel Sheridan. A golden haired, green eyed, stubborn man. These two had great chemistry together. Their banter kept the novel from being too dreary.

Will Eleanor be able to rescue her brother? Will the Spirit-Hunters defeat the army of dead? A page turner that will keep you guessing. With an ending that leaves room for more, I can only hope there will be a sequel!
